A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kaduna, Alhaji Hussain Jallo, has called on the party leadership to avoid impunity and imposition of candidates or be prepared to face worst defeat in 2019 elections.

Jallo spoke when some national and Kaduna State executives visited him at his residence in Rigachikun, in Kaduna on Saturday.

“If the main opposition party, the PDP engages in impunity and imposition of candidates for the 2019 general elections, it would suffer a worse defeat than it did in the 2015 polls.

“The PDP has bright chances of defeating the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in some states and at the national level, such chances could be lost to impunity and imposition of candidates,” Jallo warned.

Jallo, who was Special Adviser on Politics to ex-Vice President Namadi Sambo, appealed to members at all levels to unite and ensure that the party takes its rightful place as Africa’s largest political party.
